Jason Isbell - Codeine lyrics
rate meft. The 400 Unit
There's one thing I can't stand
Is this bar and this cover band …
Trying to fake their way through Castles Made of Sand
There's one thing I can't stand
There's one thing I can't take
It's the sound that woman makes
Not 5 seconds after her heart begins to break
That's one thing I can't take
She should be home by now but she ain't
I should know by now but I can't
Cause one of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
Then her eyes are as big as stars
When I saw you behind the bar
I guess that's the way to keep on smiling where you are
But girl them eyes are as big as stars
It sounds funny when you say my name
It's like you're chewin on a foreign thing
And you won't get to sleep till dawn and if it don't rain
You sound so funny when you say my name
You ought to come home tonight but you won't
Wish we knew how to fight but we don't
And one of your friends is taking you in and giving you codeine
One of your friends is taking you in and giving you codeine
Darling I'm not the one to judge
If I was then I'd say you don't look so good
Got no answers of my own, but with you gone this place looks bigger than it should
If there's two things that I hate
It's having to cook and trying to date
Bust their ass all day to play hurry up and wait
That's a few things that I hate
If I call tonight and I ain't drunk
Then this ole boat will still be sunk
Cause one of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine.<br />
